The Chargers’ B-team also played, however they didn’t make any wins in their division.

The B-team’s captain Michael Smith said he still couldn’t be prouder of how his boys represented the Chargers.

“We were given a tough draw at the Bingham Cup, but the upside was that we got the chance to play against two original gay teams – the Kings Cross Steelers from London and the San Francisco Fog,” he said.

“While the results didn’t go the way for the B-team, I couldn’t be prouder of the way the guys fought.”

The Bingham Cup was named after Mark Bingham, a rugby player who helped establish two premier gay rugby teams and unfortunately passed away during the 9/11 attacks.
